Looking for people who have experience with ceramic heating bulbs - I know these are effective for maintaining primary fermentation temps but I am curious about higher temps.

Can you use (or do you have experience using) one of these ceramic heaters to increase temps to as high as 100 degrees fahrenheit (for souring) in a large vessel (chest freezer)?

AFAIK one of those puts out a lot of heat. You could also consider a Fermwrap heater, which goes on sale once or twice a year for $10 or so.
